Black girl excellence !! propergnar
sat down with Latosha, an avid skater and artist, to take a ride on her journey towards success, talk why Black women are all the steeze and the impact Proper Gnar is having across skate culture.It started when I realized I didn't want to work at a job I hated anymore. I wanted to do something more fulfilling. I love art, fashion, and skating. I've done them since I was young, so it was a way to combine them all.
Honestly the first time was horrible. I still have the scar from the first time I tried to skate. It scared me away from it for years until I got older and was ready to try again with some friends. It got better from there because I actually had guidance. But the wind in your face and the feeling you get when you finally land something you've been working on for weeks or months, is unbeatable.Everywhere! I watch a lot of anime, fantasy movies, and read comics and manga.
As for challenges, I think it's just getting people to take you seriously. People are surprised that I'm a woman first of all and then also that I'm Black. As for Proper Gnar, [when I started] I didn't have access to pro skaters to rep the brand or connections within the industry. I kind of just had to do my own thing and learn from my own mistakes.
